Cape Town, Winelands & Kruger Safari Journey

Enjoy plenty of opportunities over the next few days to explore one of the most beautifully located cities in the world. Kick off with a trip up Table Mountain in the cable car or go wine tasting at a Constantia vineyard.

Since you have a car, take a scenic drive along Chapman's Peak Drive or past the fishing villages of False Bay to Cape Point via the penguin colony at Boulders Beach. You could also experience an exciting morning shark-cage diving, kite surfing or even abseiling - the list of activities and adventures is almost endless.

Shopping enthusiasts will love the super-convenient V&A Waterfront while sun-lovers can enjoy lounging on Camps Bay beach followed by drinks on the palm-lined Camps Bay strip in the late afternoon.

Say goodbye to the friendly staff at Welgelegen Guest House and make your way to Stellenbosch, the capital of the Cape Winelands region. Arrive at River Manor Boutique Hotel and Spa, a lovely historical property set on the picturesque oak-lined 'Avenue' of Stellenbosch and a mere few minutes walk from the many street cafes, galleries and restaurants in the city centre.

Spend an enjoyable afternoon exploring the many nearby wine estates and tasting houses available both in and around Stellenbosch. Besides the wine, the Stellenbosch area is also known for its fantastic cheeses and chocolates. Take a short drive to Spier Estate for an extra special treat of fine dining at Moyo Restaurant - an unrivalled African experience in the Winelands.

Drive back to Cape Town and catch a scheduled flight to Hoedspruit in Mpumalanga after a brief stop in Johannesburg Airport. On arrival, you'll be met and transferred to Thornybush Game Lodge, a luxurious safari lodge situated in the Thornybush Private Game Reserve. Adjoining the Kruger National Park, the area is world-famous for its superb game viewing and quality guiding.

The next few days are dedicated to discovering the wonders of Thornybush. Enjoy amazing game viewing on early morning, late afternoon and early evening drives plus luxurious accommodation, gourmet cuisine and excellent service.

If you're travelling as a family, you can also experience the thrill of guided walking safaris while your children enjoy their personalised safari activities. It's a very family-friendly lodge and there are special kids' programmes and dedicated staff to entertain the young ones.

Finish off with a pampering spa treatment or massage - a truly luxurious way of ending a day on safari.

Enjoy one final game drive this morning before being transferred back to Hoedspruit Airport for a flight to Johannesburg. Your tour will end once you arrive in the City of Gold.
